I love all these people telling you that you should run their pet distro of choice. "if anyone has some pointers on which distrib would be easiest for an exWindows guy." But now we have civilisation I agree religion is obsolete. (I agree on servers it's totally backwards and often downright dangerous)Īlso, without organised religion there would be no civilisation. bonkers imoĪnd at least systemd actually has a USE, for a desktop/laptop user. It's supposed to be for security, but the very idea that you are bypasing root priveleges and handing a potentially untrusted squashfs image to kernelspace is just. In fact it is just like the app-sandboxing evils of Apple that you cite, but coming to a Linux desktop near you.

If you run `df` on a bare Ubuntu install of their latest version, you'll find it comes with about 15 mounted 'filesystems', one for each of the stock Snap apps that Ubuntu comes with, each with their own copy of all the system libraries, and a bizarre interface to the rest of the system. I think snap is actually worse than systemd.Įvery application is mounted by the Kernel in its own squashfs. etc) surveillance and control over what you think and do. * Here I am referring to all of the evil 'provisioning' antifeatures in Windows, Android, iOS etc that are designed to give someone else (your employer, your software/hardware vendor and any advertisers who pay them, your state. Basically everything that I need as a computer user. Chrome, LibreOffice, Slack, Teams, VSCode - And of course, these days we can run even those Windows apps and games without a Linux version on Linux via Wine and Steam's Proton. Most things that I need for work are available natively for Linux e.g. It doesn't crash, it doesn't get in the way, it does everything I need, and I can trust it to work for me and not somebody else*. Even my work VPN "just works", after setting it up via the networking widget. Settings are easy to find and very useful/powerful - it's as customisable as a desktop should be without being confusing for new users. Dolphin file manager does everything a file manager needs to. "KDE Connect" is awesome for integrating with my phone. Don't know a lot about Mint/Cinnamon, but KDE has served me well as a desktop for many years, is available on most if not all distros, and is at its best yet IMO.ġ0 years ago KDE 4 was a bit of a "duff release" i'll grant, but its successor has really made up for that.
